I put a texturizer in my 4 year old's hair

I have two daughter's my oldest has stright silky hair really long, but my four year old has tight thick hair, it's a good length but it's very unmanageable. My people on my mom's side is from India so my hair is curly all I do is wash and go. So doing her hair has been a challenge for me. At one point her doctor told me I was stressing it and it was coming out. So I stopped using rubber bands etc. Since she started prek on Monday I decided It would be a good idea but my grandma cussed me out. She said I was changing the baby hair texture and messing it up. She said kids should not have chemicals put in their hair till at least 8. I did a texturizer instead of a perm because I though it was less harmful and it did make her hair more manageable. What do you ladies think should I have waited?

It is still going to be in her hair. I believe they are talking about a touch up. Her ends will still have the chemical in it. Her roots will come in natural. When I had a relaxer, I would touch up the roots every 3 months.

Sum518 these are the people I'm around daily and I didn't ask them I told them what I did after I finshed. for some reason it never occured to me that they would think differently than other balck women, I consider myself balck and I never separated the two

I asked because I was trying to figure if there were any natural hair care salons in your area so that you can take her to get a consultation. They can help ease the transition back to natural and tell what to do to properly care for it with the chemicals in it and natural.

Here's what I came up with from yelp, these salons specialize in natural hair care. Maybe you can look at the reviews and ask some questions or take a visit to some of them. I think you should have someone show you first hand what you can do.
